While growing up in British Guiana, Richard Cheong wrestles with guilt after his younger brother is murdered and his mother's death shortly thereafter. As the lone surviving son, Richard believes that only a son can redeem his tormented soul and end his life of poverty and servitude to his father's sister. After he marries the beautiful and headstrong Gloria, she bears him three girls. But in 1953 as Richard awaits the birth of what he hopes will be his first son, the British governor orchestrates a troop invasion, suspends the Guianese Constitution, and disbands the leftist government. As a chain of events unfurls that splinters Richard's life and alters the course of his country, political unrest rages across the colony.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Rosaliene Bacchus\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1684706483\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781684706488\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Lulu Publishing Services\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/12\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 294\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.96lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.66d","brand":"Rosaliene Bacchus","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44616745451775,"sku":"9781684706488","price":18.44,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_159d86b9-4591-4ff6-b098-3026e4d6a54e.jpg?v=1703022074","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/under-the-tamarind-tree-rosaliene-bacchus-9781684706488","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
